Purpose: To evaluate the regulating effect of Notch1 signaling on Th17/Treg immune imbalance in psoriasis vulgaris (PV).

Materials And Methods: Notch1, Hes-1, RORt, Foxp3, IL-17, and IL-10 mRNA expression, as well as Th17 and Treg cell percentages in peripheral CD4 T cells, were detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR and flow cytometry, and serum concentrations of IL-17 and IL-10 were detected by ELISA in 36 PV patients and 32 healthy controls. Additionally, CD4 T cells from 12 PV patients were treated with -secretase inhibitor DAPT, and the above indexes were measured.

The aim of this study were to demonstrate the effects of Yellow fluorescent protein-Toxoplasma gondii infection on the NK-92 cells co-cultured with BeWo cells in vitro and to verify the implications upon adverse pregnancy outcome. There are four groups including NK-92 cells infected or uninfected with T. gondii, and NK-92 cells co-cultured with BeWo cells in the presence or absent of T.
